Easter Bunny Girl

Oh dear I have no will power at all!!!, I intended to do all the housework and washing today and not to craft until tomorrow but as I was putting all my lovely NEC purchases away I suddenly found myself sitting at my desk colouring these fabulous new Easter Tildas, I think I must have an alter ego that takes over as soon as it sees new crafty stash.

I had a fabulous 3 days at the NEC and it was wonderful to meet up with so many friends, too many to mention but you know who you are I wish we could all get together more often I think I enjoy meeting everyone as much as the shopping, and of course being with dear Bev was the best, we had a great hotel and wonderful food. We also meet Paul and Siri from Wild Orchid Crafts they are as charming in real life as they seem on the website and are so helpful. You must check out their website this week they have some new packs of roses which they will sell in assorted packs and also some new colours in the Cherry Blossoms.

I am entering this card for this weeks challenge on Friday Sketchers Challenge it is a fabulous sketch by the wonderful Jeanette, loved it Jeanette thanks Hunxxx.

I have coloured Tilda and the eggs with Distress Inks and edged around the image with matching inks and whilst they were still wet I added some pale gold embossing powder and heat embossed, I really like the results. The tulips are from Magnolia and the Leaf Branch is a punch I picked up at The Hobby House stall as was the doily.

Well I suppose I had better get back to the washing, housework and of course cook dinner. See you tomorrow

Great card Jacqui, so pleased to hear that you've got your priorities right, crafting first. Was great seeing you again and meeting Bev at last. Bet you had a hoot and hope you didn't lead sweet Jayne astray!!Now get that bloomin housework done!Hugs, Patxx

Hi Jacqui,Oh WOW! no wonder you couldn't resist inking up this little cutie! She's just gorgeous & I love the eggs! I'm so envious you had 3 days at the NEC. I'm going straight into work tomorrow & booking time off for the next one. I am determined to go & I'm saving up for a monster blow out as of now!! Just try & stop me!Big Hugs,Andie xx

I can see how crafting would win if the choices are craft or housework and who wouldn't want to use new stash! A lovely card, Jacqui with some really pretty design elements! What a beauty! Warmest wishes, Lesley
